OMD-"Electricity" (1979)
Martin Hannett produced this duo's track wonderfully. The new-wave vocals sound amazing. There are stories from those who worked with the drugged-out genius that they disliked his final results (namely Joy Division; early U2 did one single with him). "Enola Gay" is another great OMD track worth checking out. A local favortite band introduced me to OMD's "Joan of Arc" with its inclusion on their mix cd. (That would have been a flawless mix if it wasn't for "Vogue". Oh, well.)

you know you have madonna's 'sex' book hidden somewhere in your bedroom. vanilla ice is in it, you know.
ReplyDeleteon another topic, you should review matt dillon's first movie 'over the edge.'
a family friend did show my brother and i that book when i was in 6th grade. so yes, i am familiar with the Vanilla photos. (i do get down on 'hung up'). as for the suggested film review-of course i will. that'll probably be the only request i ever get. you got that shit?
ReplyDeletehell yes, OMD is the best band ever, in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteno sorry you'll have to rent it, even though it's worth owning.
